Fletcher has gotten a few extra days home and we're all thrilled about it. So what have we been up to???? We've made an attempt to play jacks (on the carpet), we've been playing police officer, watched Star Wars (Mommy thinks we're still too young), and tried on our new school uniform at least a dozen times. Bennett looks like a little man in it. And posted a picture of our little Linus because Beau doesn't stray far from his blanket.
I'm having a proud/bragging mommy moment today. Bennett was asked by the school director to move up to the Kindergarten class starting February 1st. She said he had mastered all the skills in his class and he's a very smart boy. He works hard at his homework and does a great job paying attention in class, so I couldn't be more proud. Way to go, Bennett!!!
It's winter here and in the 70s, SO we're at the park or outside ALOT! Just a few pics of my boys playing.
Fletcher took the boys for an ice skating outing and even have pictures to prove it. After hitting the rink, they had dinner at one of our favorite stops, the noodle shop, and then ice cream at the Big Dip (which Bennett sometimes confuses with the Big Dipper in the sky). They came home with a few bruised knees and happy faces. 
And our costume obsession continues....The boys have now slept in these costumes two nights and even wore them to their own checkups where they insisted on listening to the doctor's heartbeat and looked in her ears. Thank goodness she had a sense of humor.
Fletcher and I attended a dining out for the 31st MEU last night. It was the first time he's gotten to wear his dress blues since being promoted. I would say it suits him well. Very handsome!
Our last day in Singapore we headed over to Sentosa Island to check out the sites. Lots of people spend their entire trip there and it's easy to see why. With Universal Studios and a wonderful aquarium, there is plenty to do. The weather was beautiful, but unfortunately, the boys were worn out. Bennett was running a low-grade fever, so after a few hours we headed back to the hotel to medicate. The tylenol kicked in and the boys made their way down to the pool. Quick recovery! We went to Orchard Street for dinner and almost made it home without any Grizwald moments......BUT something didn't set well with Beau and he left his mark all over Fletcher in the middle of hundreds of people in the train station. I wish I could have been more helpful, but all I could do was laugh and take a picture. Not a good team player moment for me. Beau also recovered quickly and all was well with our crew for departure.
